i really hope they will rerelease this one. i love who knew. WK and LWTH are the best songs on the album IMO. the single releases from this era has been crazy and f*cked up anyway ... might as well take a chance. i believe WK will go good following UUH from the beginning of the era. so for me it's like the start of the ear all over again with UUH as the 1st single and WK second, they can follow it with LWTH .. this would be huge, she better doesnt steal kelly's thunder lol

^^no offense but Kelly basically does the same thing and Pink did it first though so it would be taking the thunder back...lol i love Kelly too, there's room for the both of them!

I hope this isn't re-released, it has the momentum but she shouldn't risk fucking it all up.

I want the adds date moved up. It's too far away. At least wait until U+UH actually finishes, don't predict it.
That was part of the problem last time, they waited too long after "Stupid Girls" to release it.

I hope this re-release doesn't happen. "Who Knew" is wonderful, the best single from the album by far, but unfortunately, it flopped. To me, re-releasing it suggests that there's nothing worthy left on the album, which is completely untrue. Even if this is a hit, I don't think it will do for sales what a new single would.

Yes, please cut out the "flop flop flop" style posting. It smacks of trolling. If you actually have something to say about the songs re-lease, on the other hand, feel free.

Not to mention the label took WAY too long to release a second single! Agreed 110%. I think "Who Knew" is a great song, and if they do it right this time around - beginning by moving the damn adds date up! - I think it can be big, like it deserves to be.

I think P!nk really wants this song to do well. I think it's one of the most raw tracks she's ever recorded, and that's hard when it seems like the country doesn't care about your story/pain or whatever. Wasn't she the one who fought for this to be the second single to begin with?

This decision baffles me. It flopped the first time around horribly. While U and Ur Hand is a success her radio career is certainly not sealed up at this point. And there are so many other really catchy, moving, great radio singles on the cd. It may have a chance due to Hand, but I could also see this reflopping and killing the momentum of the cd...again!

Partly tre I guess. I just think song CAN do well again with the success of UUH. It'll be he Summer, teens will be leaving highschool, ans so many more people can relate to it... AND it will be performed on Idol, which should help the cause. I just WANT UUH to hit top ten first before we talk about releasing anything else.
My ultimate choice for the next single would be LWTH, then CIC, and then this song, but hey, it's Pink's way or the high way!

Who Knew is catchy, relatable, gut wrenching, radio friendly and deserves a re-release. It's very risky to do it now, but maybe after releasing a different single, Who Knew can go for adds once again. I don't see why it failed the first time around...it's STRONG.

Of course it is. It's one of the best songs on the album IMO. I love it. US radio is on farked up drugs. I hear Bobby Brown is their supplier.

I agree. I love Pink, but she is over in the US. Even if UUH is a hit now, I doubt she'll ever have another one after she messes it up by re-releasing this.

Mpol-ironically I think everyone used the same argument when it first flopped.

If this flops, I'm done. No more requesting, no more effort to support this era.
To follow up the song that revitalized the era with the song that killed it, is a risky and brave move to make. She should've just released another uptempo for the summer and get as much material out from the album as possible. WK flopped, but when people buy the album they'll remember four singles that they've heard instead of just three.
This rerelease is a dumb move IMO. But, hopefully I'll eat my words in a few months.

Yeah, I think they should just go with LMA and then WK and then LWTH! If they want to re-release WK it should be last or 2nd to last!
